Forsaken

It is often proclaimed that
The heart wants what it wants

Though I cannot fathom a guess
As to why
This heart of mine desires you

I once thought you were Heaven sent

Granted that
My prayers were never aimed at
Loving you

Yet love you
I do

I know not how to proceed

Blindsided by this
Vehemence

I am forced to feel
My way
Past the dark
Disregard you offer

In exchange for
My foolhardy display
